Want to move my existing iphoto library to a new user account on my powerbook. Is this possible?
Any tips much appreciated.
one option is to turn on sharing on the old account, then 'look for shared libraries' on the new account. if you switch to the new account with fast user switching (remaining logged into the old one) you can simply drag pics from the old library to your new one once you connect to the shared library. i hope that made sense. the other option is to copy your iPohoto library to a Firewire drive, then replace the new account's iPhoto library with it.
